    There are no shortage of examples for that sort of thing. Are you gonna mention Apple's fear of competition? :p

    I might do if I can find some stuff on it :p And of course Microsoft. Why wouldn't I mention them? I am a Mac user after all. Bashing Microsoft is part of it :D

    I'm hoping deals can be inked rapidly by people like We7 so the affected material is still available to stream...

    before anyone starts, i have a PAID subscription to them... they work like Spotify..

    Parlophone has been offloaded to Warners:

    The deal gives Warner Music a market share of 20 per cent, edging closer to Sony Music’s 29 per cent, whilst Universal remains the market leader with just under 40 per cent.

    EMI classics is incuded in the deal though they don't seem that interested in having bought it:
